One year on: TfL to review Elephant & Castle junction changes

At meetings last autumn the community council heard complaints from residents of Harper Road – as well as back-streets in Walworth – which are now being used by motorists avoiding the Elephant junction.

In a written response Southwark Councilsaid: "We have received a number of complaints from other residents regarding the change in traffic patterns in the last 12 months in the networks surrounding Elephant & Castle.

"Transport for London will be undertaking a 12-month post-implementation review of the Elephant & Castle scheme in April 2017.

"Officers will need to analyse the data against 'before' traffic counts and consider what options may be available to address any issues.
